Weatherization Program Helps Low-Income Families
KU is working to make homes in the Lexington community a more comfortable place for low-income families who use a lot of energy and have a difficult time making ends meet to pay their utility bill. Now there is a low income weatherization program WeCare (Weatherization, Conservation Advice and Recycling Energy) which is a Demand Side Management (DSM) program designed to create savings through weatherization and energy education to help low-income customers.
Because it's often difficult for low-income families to make needed repairs to save energy, KU works with community-action agencies to identify customers who are heavy users of energy and find ways to help them reduce their energy consumption.
In many cases, homes are not maintained or weatherized as well as they could be; therefore, it takes more energy to heat or cool the home because of that factor alone.
All the participants will receive a walk-through inspection and energy education. Many of the participants will receive HVAC and water heater system inspection, and some others will also receive air sealing and attic insulation.
The main eligibility requirement is income of 125% of the federal poverty level or less. When possible, elderly and disabled participants take precedence in requests for service.
Please e-mail us or call 1-800-251-7808 for direct assistance.
